REST OF SEASON OUTLOOK AND POSITION RANK

Matthew Stafford may be worth a roster spot in deeper leagues or may be a decent waiver wire pick up. His 286 projected fantasy points puts him at #21 behind Kyler Murray and ahead of Andy Dalton. He has averaged 16.93 fantasy points in his past 17 games, which is less than our projected per game average. His projected per game average is 19 fantasy points. His rank based on average projected points is the same as his rank based on total fantasy points. He is slightly underrated if you compare his ownership based rank with his projection rank. At 60%, he is the #23 most highly owned quarterback. Matthew Stafford is expected to come up short of last season's #17 fantasy position rank.

MATTHEW STAFFORD WEEK 2 AND 3 FANTASY OUTLOOK

Matthew Stafford is projected for 18 fantasy points in week 2 which only ranks him as the #22 projected quarterback and not a fantasy relevant player for the week. This is projected to be a slightly below average week with fewer fantasy points than he is projected to average the rest of the season. He is ranked above Kirk Cousins but behind Mitchell Trubisky. Week 3 is projected to be slightly better based on projected rank (#20). He is projected for 19 fantasy points.
